I have the 1973 edition of Joy of cooking which has the recipe, but since I do not have a scanner, it would be very difficult to copy and paste the recipe here. In the meantime I found two other recipes on line which sound delicious, the second of which is very similar to the Joy of Cooking Manhattan clam chowder recipe. Both recipes are tomato based. Here goes
Recipe #1:
MANHATTAN CLAM CHOWDER
5 slices bacon
1 c. chopped onions
1 c. chopped celery
1/4 c. finely chopped green pepper
3 c. water
2 c. diced, peeled potatoes
1 c. diced carrots
1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. thyme leaves, crushed
1/8 tsp. pepper
3 (6 1/2 oz.) cans minced clams, drained, reserving liquid
16 oz. can (2 c.) tomatoes, undrained, cut up
1 bay leaf
In large saucepan, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon from saucepan; drain, reserving 2 tablespoons drippings in saucepan. Crumble bacon; set aside. Saute onions, celery and green pepper in reserved drippings until tender. Add water, potatoes, carrots, parsley, salt, thyme, pepper, reserved liquid from clams, tomatoes and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 25 to 35 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Remove bay leaf. Stir in clams. Heat gently, stirring frequently; do not boil. Garnish each serving with crumbled bacon. Yield: 6 (1 1/2 cup) servings.
Recipe#2
Lundy's Brooklyn Red
(or Manhattan Clam Chowder)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SERVES 8
Like all chowders, this one tastes better made a day ahead of time. This is a classic that combines clams, fresh clam broth, tomatoes, potatoes, vegetables, and herbs.
4 pounds quahog, or 6 pounds cherrystone clams
2 tablespoons butter
2 large or 3 medium onions, cut into large dice
2 carrots, cut into large dice
2 stalks celery, cut into large dice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
3 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice
One 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons dry thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons dry oregano
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt (optional)
Scrub the clams well to remove any external debris. Place the clams in a large pot with 8 cups water. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook until the clams just open, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain the broth into a large bowl and set aside. Separate the clams from their shells. Coarsely chop the clams and set aside; discard the shells.
Clean any sand from the bottom of the pot. Heat the butter over a moderately low heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently to prevent browning, about 8 minutes, or until soft. Add the carrots, celery, garlic, bay leaf, potatoes, tomatoes, tomato paste, thyme, oregano and pepper, and stir to mix. Add the reserved clam broth into the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to moderate and cook, uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes. Add the clams and cook another 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Taste for seasoning and serve piping hot.
